It might work out cheaper to buy 25 litres of RO water from your local aquatics shop. You have to pay for the barrel first time, then just for refills.

You won't get it under pressure, you would have to rinse with a bucket, but how about this for an alternative approach;

Its a cracking product.. for 3 rinses. As instructed, to maximise the life of the product, I washed the car with normal water, then rinsed it using the aqua gleam filter. Did an amazing job - literally no residue at all, even without using a chamois.

The problem - on the 4th rinse, the filter was already turning purple (indicating exhausted), and streak marks are once again appearing on the car.

Its been used very sparingly, no power hose, no special weird water butt. Just plain old SW London tap water.

So if you don't mind paying £62 for 3 washes, I'd say go for it. But at £20 per wash, the local hand valet is actually somewhat cheaper...

In summary - lovely to see a product working, but I can't help feeling I'd been conned here. The brochure talks about very different numbers, which would make complete sense. Instead the reality is just massively disappointing.
